Express File Paths in Canonical Form
Description
Convert file paths to canonical form for the platform, to display them in a user-understandable form.
Usage
normalizePath(path)
Arguments
path |
character vector of file paths. |
Details
Where the platform supports it this turns paths into absolute paths
in their canonical form (no ./, ../ nor symbolic links).
If the path is not a real path the result is undefined. On Unix-alikes, this will likely be the corresponding input element. On Windows, it will likely result in an error being signalled.
Value
A character vector.
Examples
cat(normalizePath(c(R.home(), tempdir())), sep = "\n")
